It's Fun to Play the Piano ... Please Pass It On!

I'm helping a friend buy a piano for her daughter who is just starting lessons. I was searching on Craigslist and came across a posting for a U3 that is about 13 years old. In searching for the age, the serial # starts with an "H" and then "26490xx". On the Yamaha website, it seems that this piano was made in China, but I was not aware that U3's were made there at all. Also, the serial number should not exist if it was indeed made in Hangzhou as a 2010 model starts with H0105429 and this is 13 years old.
